One NFL insider, Greg Auman of Fox Sports, sent a reality check message about Sanders and the deal that he received from Tampa Bay. "Shilo Sanders signed the same deal nearly all NFL undrafted rookies sign — three years at league-minimum salaries… there’s little assurance of anything in terms of job security," Auman wrote.

Viewers watched as Shilo and his younger brother, Shedeur Sanders, live streamed their three-day draft process on the platform Twitch -- with nearly one million people tuning in for the recap. Judging by the comments on social media -- many viewers came with well-wishes, while some seemed eager to survey the carnage.
